Once, again, Mr. Punch, with my help, is offering up a true Victorian riddle. The first person to answer correctly--by posting in the comments--will receive public congratulations.

It depends on who's empty stomach you try and write on and how neat the penmanship is.
Very true. Imagine if you'd try on Bo Peep's belly.
My Internet is acting up, so pardon slow responses today.
Not if you write with a carrot.

That confused me enough the first time, Matt.
I do nothin on an empty stomach.
I'm not surprised.
I'd rather use paper.
Oh, clever Gene.
Better than on an empty head.
Ha!
I like to write on birch bark.
No doubt.
No. It's better to write one on an empty head.

Where's this week's treat?
Hi Beth Ann. I was going to do it tomorrow, but I decided that Monday will be a food-a-palooza with Labor Day's treats and this coming weekend's. I have a bunch of food-related stuff all planned. Even a Caption Contest!
Yes, but never send a telegram.
I won't.
No one writes letter. Empty stomach texts are in.
How trendy.
If you use a Sharpie it's there forever.
A feather quill might tickle your chest.
A fountain pen might hurt.
Lipstick is okay.
All this is from personal experience.
Ketchup works, too.
